ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic model of the by-gone Wickford Harbor Lighthouse. Mr. Zachorne I want to praise you for a job well done, thanks! The Wickford Public Libray also needs to be praised for offering to house this great piece of history for all to admire. The library is also featuring talks pertaining to this beautiful lighthouse,that once stood at the entrance of our great harbour. Thanks to everyone who helped make this all happen.
